HTWP1000M0WW Hotpoint Washer - Instructions

Gently turned washer over onto its front. Removed bottom metal panel (3 or 4 screws on each side). Removed old belt. Installed new belt. NOTE: The new belt is a tight and perfect fit, therefore it will not want fit on to both pulleys/ rotating discs. I have found the best method is to start the belt on the disc that drives the belt. Then place as much of the belt over the disc that sits below the washing machine drum as is possible(the spinning part)and then turn the belt by hand and the belt should pop on to the disc. If the belt goes on easily you may have the wrong belt as the belt must be tight to achieve the traction necessary for the washing machine to spin. HOPE THIS HELPS!! A screwdriver may be handy in helping to pry on the belt. Good look.

We bought this used Hotpoint that was probably one of the original machine created back in the stone-age, it's so old. We've had it 10 months, and it's always had this... burnt rubber stink to it... then one day, it stopped agitating and sounded like a metal bucket of bolts being shaken. We're on a military income with five kids, and the idea of buying a new washer was just... heartbreaking. On a whim, having fixed a washer once before, we opened the front up and painstakingly pulled every last rubber fiber from what used to be the belt. Ordered the part. It shipped quick, arrived quick, and in under a week we were back in business. Someone else had mentioned the needing 1/4" socket, and I was glad I remembered that, because it made is SO much easier.

With the instructions found online, this was a quick easy repair. I used youtube to have video to show the method. Used rope to pull up agitator, used wrench to loosen bolt and then put back together. Part was delivered really fast, I recommend Partselect.com for the parts you need!

order part. replace

I watched the video you provided and I could't believe how simple it was. I'm 67 yrs old and I just followed the video instructions.

Was very easy to remove and replace. The instructional video let me know what to expect

Unit unplugged. Next day delivery, saved plastic clip and two screws from hose connect to washer , removed leaking hose ,replaced with new hose fully pushed into unit with plastic clip already in place on new hose. Tightened screws on plastic holding clip on new hose. Done complete job in 5 minutes.

I was frantically trying to find a cheap washer to replace the one that "broke". Fortunately, my son's roommate is a maintenance technician. He diagnosed the problem immediately. I googled the issue, found the part, ordered it and received delivery of the part in 3 days. It took all of 5 minutes to replace the part and reassemble the washer. Now on to the 15 loads of laundry that have been stacking up!

Disconnect the water lines. Remove the three screws holding the instrument panel on. Tip the instrument panel forward out of the way. (Be careful with instrument panel, because after you remove screws, you have to tip it a little and then slide it to the right about a half inch to release the lower clips) Remove the two screws and the hose connection on the triple water valve and swap it out. It's pretty straight forward.

Removed back. Checked cycle limit and thermostat. All checked o. K. Next checked element and it was shorted to ground. Replaced element and installed back. Working like new again. . .

My washing machine began smoking one day while on spin cycle. I freaked out and turned every breaker off on the electric panel since I, apparently, forgot how to read during this episode. Once the smoke cleared and my brain power returned I removed the front panel of the machine. After a quick look I decided I saw nothing wrong that I could fix. 24 hours later my brain had returned to normal functioning capacity so I decided to turn the power back on to the washer and see what happened. It was then that I noticed the smoke coming from a black cylinder on the front of the washer. I googled my washer and the VERY helpful diagrams from partselect.com came up showing me this was the capacitor. Since as mentioned previously my brain was now functional again I was able to determine this would be an easy fix, ordered the part, got it 24 hours later (!!!!!) with no special shipping, and installed it in 5 minutes. I feel smart today! Thanks Partselect.com!
